1. Healthy Breakfast.Learn how your breakfast affect your life. “Carbs-based breakfast = more fat” In the morning, simple carbohydrates (fruit, cereals, rice, toasts, etc.) cause an immediate increase of your blood sugar level which results in the body compensating for the extra sugar load. Sugar in excess of energy needs is converted and stored as fat. The result is a decreased level of blood sugar and a hunger for more carbs. This cycle repeats itself 2-3 more times during the day. This unhealthy cycle is a big reason for the development of other major health problems and over weight. “Skipping breakfast = more fat” When you skip breakfast, blood sugar drops below the normal level, you experience cravings for food and a drop in energy. You are then tempted to eat simple carbohydrates to achieve a quick energy. Simple carbs will increase your blood sugar level. The body compensate for the extra sugar load and the excess sugar turns into fat. This cycle repeats itself 2-3 more times during the day. This unhealthy cycle is a big reason for the development of other major health problems and over weight. “Balanced protein-based breakfast = less fat” A protein-based breakfast such as a Formula 1 Healthy Meal, supplies your body with all vital 114 nutrients and energy while keeping your blood sugar level stable. It helps to avoid dependence on sugar-laden carbs during the day. In this way, appetite stays under control, cravings for carbs (snacks, chocolate, rice, junk, soft drinks, etc.) diminish and the body uses some of its own stored fats to get more energy.
